How many Waffle sites are there currently?

What is Waffle ?

news.answers/waffle-faq

In addition, there is a built-in editor, file upload/download, and the ability to hook in external programs and gateway to (or from) other packages. DOS Waffle supports (but does not require) external Fossil drivers to allow use of high speed modems and allows an MSDOS PC to be a fully RFC compliant USENET node. It also provides the UUCP-based transport mechanism that generally comes with unix systems.

Is Waffle free ?

news.answers/waffle-faq
The DOS version is shareware that is made available in binary form at many locations so you can 'try before you buy'. The UNIX version is available as source code only, and there is no provision to 'try before you buy'. However, the look and feel of the two versions are almost identical, so the DOS version serves as a 'try' version.

Can I get FidoNet Netmail on my Waffle?

news.answers/waffle-faq
Waffle rmail wants to see a From_ line as the <first> line in a mail message. The From_ line is structured when you finally receive the mail item. Only the "From user" portion is required. rmail constructs the remainder if it's not present. rmail uses this line as a marker, placing its own Received: header after it. If the From_ line is not first, rmail constructs a default set of headers, and appends all the supplied text as the message body.

Q - Why are other sites currently ranking higher than mine?

Search Engine Optimisation - Is Google your friend yet? - FA...
A -The reason other sites are ranking higher than yours is mainly due to the quality of links they have. Link quality is based on how relative the incoming links are and how high the PageRank of the link web page is. If the site has any expert links from educational or government sites, this will also enhance their quality. Link quality tends to spread out over a site, so just looking at the links that point to a certain page is not an indication of how good the link quality is for that site.
